Galilean Relativity

Famous quotes containing the words galilean and/or relativity:

    Last came, and last did go,
    The pilot of the Galilean lake.
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    By an application of the theory of relativity to the taste of readers, to-day in Germany I am called a German man of science, and in England I am represented as a Swiss Jew. If I come to be regarded as a bĂȘte noire the descriptions will be reversed, and I shall become a Swiss Jew for the Germans and a German man of science for the English!
    Albert Einstein (1879–1955)
